Butcher: The neoprims.They don't muck around with something like this. Cut my tongue out they would.
Butcher: What will it be then?
Wilf: Toad in the hole, please.
Butcher: We don't carry that. There's a special pork today, that'd be my pick.
Wilf: That's a shame, I'm afraid we had our hearts set on toad in the hole. We've been assured it's your specialty.
Buther's Wife: You two look like a lovely young couple. You might want to be on your way before anyone gets hurt.

Wilf: Perhaps it might be prudent of me to slip out the back.
Ossian: She knows you're here, she mentioned you by name. How should I proceed, sir?
Lev: Well, let her in, for fuck's sake! It'll look incriminating if you make her wait.
Cherise: I've lived through more extremity than you could possibly imagine. It would crush your tiny little mind. So please, don't care to lecture me about pain.

Cherise: How can I be of help?
Flynne: You mean besides not killing me and my family?
Cherise: Well, exactly, because that's rather non-negotiable.
Ella: The idea that the worst thing a person can do is grow dependent on some outsider. All they care about is taking something from your pocket and putting it in there's, and on a regular basis too.
Flynne: But we aren't paying them anything. They're the ones paying us.

Billy Ann: I honestly can't tell if that's a compliment or an insult.
Bob: Oh I'd never waste an insult on a stranger, young lady. I save them up for friends and family.
Billy Ann: Did I or did I not explicitly tell you not to take any of that money.
Jasper: I didn't.
Billy Ann: So this just magically fucking showed up in your jacket pocket?
Excuse me. I just want to say you have the most extraordinary eyes. Seriously. I'd kill for eyes like that.

Wilf: We'll investigate the headset. We'll only ask you to return if it's safe. Give you my word.

Wilf: Why?
Lev: Without the immunity boost of her implant, how long can she last?
